 * Return a "masked" copy of the given object.

 * the only values are `true` or a sub-mask. `true` implies the property
 * should be included, and a sub-mask implies the property should be further
 * masked according to that sub-mask.
 *
 * If a property is not found in the last, its type is included instead.

 * @param {object} object - The object to mask
 * @param {Object<object | boolean>} mask - The mask to apply to the object
